This Thunderbolt™ 3 dual-monitor docking station is the first Thunderbolt docking station to fully support charging Windows PC laptops and the MacBook Pro using USB Power Delivery. With a single cable, the dock delivers up 85W to power and charge your laptop, while powering your peripherals at the same time.

With dual-monitor support, the dock makes it easy to connect two 4K Ultra HD displays (one DisplayPort and one Thunderbolt 3 USB-C™ port), or a single Thunderbolt 3 display (60Hz). For a dual DisplayPort monitor solution right out of the box, a USB-C to DisplayPort cable (with an extended length of 6 ft./1.8 m) is included, for connecting a second DisplayPort monitor to the Thunderbolt 3 port.

Plenty of power, with support for USB Power Delivery

This Thunderbolt 3 docking station comes with a 170W power adapter for powering and charging (up to 85W) your Windows laptop or MacBook Pro, while simultaneously powering all of the peripheral devices that are connected to the dock. This eliminates the need to use two separate power adapters for your laptop and the docking station, which minimizes the clutter around your workstation.

Finish your work faster with Thunderbolt 3

Thunderbolt 3 is the fastest connection available, and it supports multiple video channels, data, and power, without impacting system performance. With up to 40Gbps of throughput, you can add extra displays to your laptop, access files faster, and reduce waiting, so you can accomplish more in the same amount of time.

Multitask at the highest resolution

If you need a larger, higher-resolution viewing area, this dock can help. You can connect two 4K Ultra HD displays, so it’s perfect for working with high-bandwidth or graphics-intensive content.

The Thunderbolt 3 dock supports two 4K (3840 x 2160p or 4096 x 2160p) monitors through the DisplayPort and Thunderbolt 3 USB-C port (a USB-C video adapter might be required depending on monitor). For dual monitors, simply connect your first DP monitor through the dock’s DisplayPort, and a second monitor through the dock’s extra Thunderbolt 3 port using the included USB-C to DisplayPort Adapter Cable or to a USB-C based monitor. The Thunderbolt dock will also work with legacy displays, such as VGA monitors, when coupled with a USB-C to VGA adapter or DP to VGA adapter.

With support for two 4K monitors, the Thunderbolt dock makes it easier to multitask when you’re working with high-definition video or other complex work. Single 5K resolution is supported on 5K capable Thunderbolt 3 monitors through the Thunderbolt 3 USB-C port only.

Connect all of your peripherals using only a single cable

Using the single included Thunderbolt 3 cable and a single port on your laptop, you can transform your macOS Sierra (or later) or Windows® 7 (or later) laptop into a full-size workstation with access to new and legacy technologies through a number of different port types. The dock is ideal for virtually all Thunderbolt 3 equipped laptops such as the Dell™ XPS 13, Dell XPS 15, and the Apple MacBook Pro 13 and 15.

The Thunderbolt 3 docking station features two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports for connecting to Thunderbolt devices and other peripherals that use the USB-C connector, as well as DisplayPort video output.

Convenient connections prepare you for the future

You can keep your mobile device charged and ready to go using the dock’s always-on USB fast-charge and sync port, which supports USB Battery Charging Specification 1.2. The Thunderbolt 3 dock offers a variety of other connections that are often missing from port-limited laptops, such as an extra USB-C port (5Gbps - data only) and a Gigabit Ethernet port.

With three USB 3.0 ports in total, you have plenty of ports to connect modern and legacy devices. (USB 3.0 is also known as USB 3.1 Gen 1.) Now, you can rest assured knowing you’re ready for the current and next generation of universal connectivity.

The rear-panel DP and USB-C ports can be used with dual monitors that support lower resolutions, such as 4K at 30Hz or 1080p. StarTech.com offers a variety of USB-C video adapters, such as USB-C to HDMI and USB-C to VGA, which lets you connect a mixture of modern and legacy displays to the docking station.

Love this little thing!

Use it mainly with my Macbook. Tested with a friend's Dell. In both cases, it just worked.
Small, flat, hardly noticable. Feeds power through just fine, drives 4k via DP without an issue. Added 2nd HDMI monitor via adapter cable, and that was no issue either!
Sometimes on the Macbook, after coming out of sleep, I need to disconnect the dock and reconnect, and then all is well. But it's not consistent, and not frequent.
What I'd like to see is Mac compatible docks that have an option in the driver to tell OSX to disable/dim the built-in screen. But that's a wishlist, not a fault of this little beastie.
Power pass through is appreciated, as I can leave my adapter in the bag, drop the computer on the desk and connect ONE cable.
Would like to see an additional USB-C and USB-A on the front of the dock, as I tend to connect a thumb-drive and charge my phone, but I can work around that. Just a 'nice to have'.
If there was a way to make this backward compatible with TB2... THEN it would be perfect. :)
Overall though, SOLID build, decent port placement, great size, and near flawless performance (other than the reconnect/sleep thing I mentioned).
I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review. And have already purchased an additional one for the Mrs.!!

Makes me appreciate my Mac

Purchased to work with my HP Spectra x360 15in 2017. It does not work with two monitors out of the box with the supplied drivers. Windows 10 Pro 64 is up-to-date, computer is up-to-date with all Intel and HP updates.. I am waiting for a reply from technical support. Everything works perfectly when I plug in my Mac. So I know it is not a cable issue. It is my Windows 10 work computer I need it for. It works with 1 monitor attached. I can get two external monitors to work if I plug one into the computer's HDMI port, but that is not why I purchased it.

Response from StarTech.com:

Malcolm · Customer Support · 10/9/2017 4:27:08 PM

Thanks for sharing your experience with us. We hope we can help.
In order for two monitors to work, one needs to be connected to the DisplayPort port on the back of the dock, and the other to the Thunderbolt 3 (Type-C) port also on the BACK of the dock (beside the DP port). The Type-C port on the front of the dock is data-only and cannot be used for a monitor connection.
We have also replied to your support email with some further questions. We also have Technical Support Advisors available 24 hours, 5 days a week for live support by chat or phone.

Amazing for Mac. *Verify your PC Hardware*

This docking station is just what I’ve been waiting for, something to free up my AC adapter and allow a one-cable connection for everything. While it didn’t work for my USB-C equipped Ultrabook (make sure your hardware has a Thunderbolt3 controller; if it doesn’t, then all you will get is power) it worked flawlessly with my MacBook Pro, no drivers to install, no issues whatsoever! Construction is what I’ve come to expect; solid and well built, connectors are sturdy and there is a generous power supply with all the international plug ends. My only comment would be that there are no power lights; not on the Power brick or the dock itself. But that is far from a complaint. This thing is awesome.

Solid Build and Nice Looking Device

I have used this docking station for a few weeks with just my Lenovo T470 laptop and it works very well. I have attempted to connect other devices (that don't have Thunderbolt 3) but none of them work.
The dock comes in a box about the size and weight of a brick. It was much heavier than I expected. Both the dock itself and the large power supply are equally heavy. The dock is made of medal and is very study and nicely built. The doc is about the same size as a large laptop power brick, which it comes with to power itself and the host device. I very much like the look of this dock on my desk. It has both a USB-C and USB-A 3.0 port on the front as well on the back it has these two ports again plus network, display port and headphone out then power, microphone and USB-C in.
The doc connects very quickly when Windows has started. Only a couple of seconds and everything is working great. The docking station was able to keep my computer charged without any problem. My complaint with this product is it pretty much doesn't work with anything that does not have Thunderbolt 3. I tried using it with many other USB-C devices but nothing would work (charging, display, USB or network). I can get all of these working with single purpose USB-C adaptors but not this dock.
This docking station does a very good job and looks very nice. It will likely replace every docking station in my office at some point in the future once all laptops support Thunderbolt 3. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.

Power delivery dock all in one!

I needed a dock instead of unplugging and plugging back in the cables everytime I needed to take my notebook with. This Thunderbolt dual 4k docking station from StarTech has surpassed my expectations. The quality metal build and compact size is just what I was looking for. The grey color also matches the Apple MacBook. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.”

Nice solidly built thunderbolt 3 Docking station

What a great little dock!
So the first thing you will notice that that this dock has some weight to it. I have tried some competitors docks before and some are much lighter. Now I prefer the fact that this has some weight and I found it helped to keep all the cables etc where I want them and not where the cables wanted to go.
This dock offers multiple thunderbolt 3 ports, Displayport, Usb-3.0, ethernet and audio in/out along with power delivery.
I tested this with my MacBook pro and found it worked like a charm. I tested with my external monitor and had no issues at all. Now I could not test at 4k as my monitor does not support it. But at 1080P this unit worked perfectly.
This is a great options for people who want to leave all the cables hooked up and just plug the laptop in and off we go!
I would recommend this unit to anyone looking for a well built and solid dock. Far better then most of the competition.
